Description:The service was unable to add the counter "<\\machinename\parameter category\parameter>" to the <log or alert name> log or alert. This log or alert will continue, but data for that counter will not be collected. To collect data from a remote computer, the Performance Logs and Alerts service must run under an account that has access to the remote system.

Comments:Tom Bell
This will occur when you try to use performance tool to monitor counters on a different server. Under services ensure that the "Performance Logs and Alerts" service has a logon that has "log on as a service" permission on the destination server.
